Trump creating inner circle turmoil with 'hysterical' gift obsession

Donald Trump has traded in his signature MAGA hats for an unexpected gift of choice: $145 Florsheim men's dress shoes that he's distributing to agency heads, lawmakers, and White House officials — and he apparently expects them to wear them in his presence.

According to a Wall Street Journal report by Alex Leary, the president has developed an obsession with the footwear and has made gifting them a ritualistic part of his Oval Office operations.

Trump has been known to suddenly pivot conversations to his "incredible" new shoes.
